Aisled Barn At Brockholds Farm (40 Metres West Of House)

This is an aisled barn located at Brockholds Farm, dating from the early 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century and an extension of two bays to the west. The barn features a timber frame that is dark weatherboarded on a red brick sill, topped with a flat pitched roof now covered in corrugated iron. It is a six-bay double aisled barn with a two-bay extension on the west side, facing south. There are double doors located in the fourth bay from the east and the second bay from the west. The structure includes heavy jowled posts on spur sill-walls, with curved braces supporting the arcade plates. Each post has a face-halved bladed scarf joint above it. The barn has cambered tie-beams and sinuous braces in the midstray, along with straight tension braces in the walls. The queen strut roof has been altered to a flatter pitch, and the aisle walls were heightened in the 19th century. Additionally, three and a half bays of the aisle at the northwest were widened and rebuilt in brick during the 20th century.
